These default accounts are attached to the position when the position is first created. Costing Allocations should be assigned once a worker is moved in to a position.

Applicable funding dates a If more than one account is being used to fund the worker s salary, the distribution percentages will be needed. Costing allocations can be assigned to a specific earning (i.e. housing allowance or vacation) or they can be assigned to an overall position. Assign Costing Allocations is a sub-process that appears in the Hire, Add Job and Change Job processes and can also be completed as a stand-alone process. Costing allocations must be finalized by noon of the biweekly or monthly payroll close. All employees, excluding staff and tenured faculty, must have end dates assigned to their costing allocations. 1

2 Steps: 1. From the Employee Profile, click on the Related Actions Icon to display the menu of Available Actions. Hover over Payroll and click on Assign Costing Allocation. 2.

Multiple FAS Accounts may be entered to fund a position or an earning. You can select the Copy Costing Allocation option before adding a segment. The new costing allocation will display the same funding distribution and accounts as the previous. This saves time, especially when maintaining multiple funding accounts for one individual that experiences slight changes in funding allocations from month to month.

This step allows you to override the default funding entirely with alternative FAS Accounts or override only a portion of the default funding. The Distribution Percent must always add up to 100 on a costing allocation. 5c. Use the icons to add and remove rows within each costing allocation. To remove an entire costing allocation segment, click on the minus icon directly underneath the button. 6. Click on the Submit Icon to submit this task. 7. You will see that this task has been successfully completed. 8. After completing the assignment of costing allocations at the earning level, you can assign another earning level costing allocation or assign costing allocations to the position by clicking Assign Costing Allocation under the Do Another header. 4

Costing allocations must be set up at the position level at minimum. If the costing allocations set up at the position level expire, the FAS Account and FAS Sub Account listed on the default organizational assignments will be used to issue payment.
